Additionally, to clear your goods through customs, we will need to present your passport, visa or residency permit (if required), and all relevant customs declaration forms. The signature on your passport must match the signature on your submitted documents.
Many Caribbean nations enforce strict import regulations and customs checks for international removal shipments, so knowing prohibited items before packing helps avoid delays. So it is important to research prohibited or restricted items before shipping. We recommend that all clients thoroughly clean items that have been used outdoors—such as bicycles, shoes, and gardening tools—to avoid inspection delays or additional cleaning charges.
When relocating overseas to the Caribbean, be prepared to pay customs duties, environmental charges, and port fees as part of the import process in the Caribbean are mandatory and payable at the destination. These measures are in place to protect local agriculture, marine environments, and ecosystems from pests, diseases, and invasive species that could be brought in from overseas. For this reason, all goods entering Caribbean ports are assessed and may be inspected before your shipment is released.
